Hi, I am doing an 'exists' query on a field that is matching to a text field. The results all come back with same score. Example: \_metadata:[\* TO \*] // Match documents where this field exists matched field ['text'] This searches only documents that contain a field called \_metadata and highlights that field into 'text' field. I want the results to be ranked based on size of \_metadata field or # of matches. Is it possible? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
